i have 3 gigs 3x1GB sticks.....which is all fine and dandy except i have 2 samsung 400mhz ddr2 sticks and one 800mhz ballistix you see the prob is to keep 3ghz stable i cant run it for awhile because well 1 the samsung chips dont have heat spreaders and at 600mhz because of my multi and dividers is as low as i can get it i have to push 2.5v(max on the mobo) through it to get it to accept the 200mhz oc...and all this time the ballistix is 200mhz underclocked and accepting way more ram than is spec'd and the problem and instability comes from the fact that the samsung chips over heat and fail after a little bit even at the amazing only way to get it stable timings of

well i love G. Skill personally i hate ocZ hate them unfortuneltely their wicked cheap their going on the credit card i have presents to get ppl and im tired of crashes now....so ultimately thats what helped me make my choice.

ive always owned OCZ products. ive used their value to high end/enthusiast RAM (all DDR) and have had no complaints. i had 4x512 of their value ram running @ 220 1:1 for the longest time before i learned that i could OC higher and be more stable with 2 stix vs 4. so i sold them and bought some VX's

its better to OC with 2 stix vs 4 because there is less stress on the mem controller.

ive been very pleased with the OCZ products ive used (save for the DDR booster) and the warranty and support is top notch.

I have the DDR2-800 2x512mb OCZ Platinum XTC and its real nice RAM. I just replaced it with Transcend AxeRAM DDR2-800 2x1gb. I had it running at DDR2-900 4-4-4-12 at 1.8v...its amazing RAM and I highly suggest it. Some people report having it running at DDR2-1066 5-5-5-13 at 2.0v. It's fairly cheap too for about $65 shipped and especially awesome for running at 1.8v.

thnx guys. ya i think they'll do good i mean the only thing im wondering is if it will oc well..i mean they are 2gb a piece so thats pretty dense hopefully they'll clock well while holding their timings....or tighter if not stable iv got plenty of v's to throw at it..what do you guys think i was hoping to get some more responses. i want to know what you guys think of the purchace i mean id always ask first here b4 buying unless it was g.skill cause i just love it the only reason i didnt this time is because personal constraints made these sticks the only option available.
